'Lo all. I'm here to hash out my plot, with or without help but do feel free to post, point out plot holes and whatever else that tickles your fancy.
Update, see last post 8/28
I write in non-chronological order so everything is all over the place. Also, slight possibility that it may contain slash.
So here's my basics:
Identical triplets, Jeremy (Jerry), Matthew (Matt) and Zachary (Zach) have been raised to be so close they literally seem to share one mind.
Their mother, a multitasking workaholic, has had enough of their indistinguishable behavior and demands they change at once.
Thoroughly pissed off by her opinion they turn the blame back onto her lack of parenting skills and their absentee father.
The interjection of an pissed at the world unpredictable student, Gavin, and his best friend, Cano end up as the catalyst for the triplets starting to show their individual personalities, even if it takes quite a while for them to realize it.
As their secluded world opens up, the boys uncover truths about their family that tear it further apart and push them closer together, possibly undoing any progress they've made.

Timeline:? lol what's that?
It seems I only intended the story to have a 4 month timeframe. Well, things change all the time.
Late Spring - Story begins. (Month? I nearly broke the fourth wall!)
March - Beginning.
April - ?
May - Profit!! End of what looks like it's shaping up to be the first half. The triplets birthday, May 23rd [I think.]
June - The triplets birthday celebration.
Odd Tidbits:
- Teresa arranged for the boys to always have the same class to eliminate class switching.
- The boys answer all tests in the same way. They're pulled out for cheating almost constantly at the begginning of every school year.
To Do List:
- Write
- Finish fleshing out their settings.
- what school do they go to
- town layout
- Figure how much interaction Cano and the boys extended family will have in the story
Questions to address:

The Story Thus Far...
Matt, Zach and Jerry think they're the same. Literally, they share one mind. However, their mother, Teresa, has grown tired of their unwavering unity and wants them to face up to the fact that they won't always be together, but goes about it in the wrong way.
Shortly afterwards, the triplets run into Gavin during school individually and quickly discover that he's as quick to anger as he is to flirt, sometimes simultaneously. After things smooth over with the help of Cano, Gavin invites the trio to hangout with them.
Taking and an liking to them, Gavin decides to do what no one has ever bothered to: get to know them.

Family Life:The Lewis' Mr and Mrs Lewis, ages unknown, first names presently unknown. They openly disregard their only son, and are physically, emotionally and mentally abusive/negligent towards Cano. They withhold all forms of interaction and nourishment. They have allowed his mental state to deteriorate to dangerous levels until he became self-abusive - and was still ignored. Cano does not exist to them unless they need him for something. Cano Lewis Cano has a precariously slight grip on reality. He suffers from delusions of abandonment and fears being left alone. He maintains a tight grip on his emotions to help prevent it from occurring. The quickest way for him to break out it is for him to have physical contact, namely Jerry and other people he trusts, skin to skin contact is most effective. Cano has a relative amount of ease calming people down and making them see reason/persuading them to his point of view, though he lacks the ability to do it for himself. He's got an abundance of charisma and charm that he rarely uses. The Davis'
Teresa Davis Mentally and emotionally abusive, Teresa has always deflected the boys' need for attention onto each other and is now jealous of their impenetrable closeness. She denied them her attention and approval after her husband left and prior to that was in school, earning her degree. Was pregnant and married by age 16 and felt (still feels) robbed of her control over her own life. Fredrick Davis Physically absent from the boy's lives since they were 7, he has no form of interaction with them other than a brief call on holidays and birthdays. Jerry Davis Jerry is emotional vulnerable and insecure. Like Cano, he fears being alone and being singled out. Tends to stutter and/or blush when directly addressed. Prefers to be in groups but can harness his own confidence when/if he needs to. Matt Davis Matt is extremely aware of his surroundings but has mentally distanced himself to the point of causing his forgetfulness. Used to identify things based on color, shade, style, etc. which resulted in his ready classification of things in art terms. Zach Davis Zach is extremely protective of himself and his brothers. He's prone to draw attention to himself with his mischievousness in order to distract from others (as seen when first meeting Sherrie). The Millers
Angie Miller Enthusiastic, but less energetic than her son, Angie [Angeline] Miller is a kind woman. Her love of books was the only thing that gave her paitence until she learned to hone it from husband. Derek Miller Calm. Gavin Miller . Tanner Miller . The Powells Ivette Powell . Mr Powell . Dora Powell . Godric Powell .

8/28 Update:
So, I'm stuck. The story is at a standstill.
Teresa and the boys are at an impasse every time they encounter each other, I'm not sure how to progress their scenes together without forcing it.
Their school life is of little importance but is supposed to be upgraded
